A Declarative Mapping Sentence
In the first chapter of this book, I gave brief details about mapping sentences and facet theory, and in order to facilitate understanding of mapping sentences and also to enable this chapter to be read alone, I may repeat some of the content of Chapter 1 in this chapter. Developing a declarative mapping...

Declarative Mapping Sentences
Content Summary Throughout the earlier chapters of this book, I have considered both the declarative and traditional forms of mapping sentences, although I emphasised the traditional form of mapping sentence in the first chapter. In this chapter, I provide more details to support my claims that...

When and Why to Use the Declarative Mapping Sentence
When information is interpreted in a reliable manner (in a way that yields similar results when explorations and interpretations of similar content are performed at different times and in different places), such interpretations may be said to possess hermeneutical consistency. During the last decade,...

The Declarative Mapping Sentence as a Structured Mereology and Structured Ontology
The claims that I made earlier are broad, and during the remainder of this book, I will attempt to provide further support and justification for these. Earlier, I noted that when adopting a philosophical facet theory orientation, any fomi of mapping sentence may be thought of as a categorial ontology...

Map making and qualitative research in psychology
Maps are familiar, everyday and yet highly complex entities. As Brotton (2012: 5) outlines: a map is both a physical object and a graphic document, it is both written and visual [... it| draws on artistic methods to create an ultimately imaginative representation of an unknowable object (the world);...

Designing Research Instruments Using Mapping Sentences
When employing a facet theory rubric in conducting a research project, investigatory' instruments are designed that incorporate elements of all of the facets in a way that reflects the way the facets have been related to each other in the mapping sentence. To do this, one element is selected from each...

The Semantic and Linguistic Structure of the Mapping Sentence
As well as containing a substantive content in regard to an area of research, all forms of mapping sentences also embody linguistic and semantic structures.1 The linguistic components of a mapping sentence are the words and grammar which contain and transmit the sentence’s meaning (the semantic sense)....

Building visual worlds: insights from using mapping in qualitative research
Drawing together these two studies, we would like to make three claims about some potential benefits of maps and map making in the context of qualitative research in psychology. Maps are particularly good at, perhaps unsurprisingly, locating experiences, and enabling participants to explore complexity...

Qualitative Research as a Methodological Framework
Through its strong focus on a casuistic study of the subjective logic in a patient’s functioning this kind of diagnosis is by itself a vulnerable method: vulnerable, that is, to becoming too strongly influenced by the style of a diagnostician, and by errors of thinking or preconceptions in her functioning....

Qualitative Research
By now we hope we have made clear to the reader that the study of communities and crime is complex. Scholars recognize the intricate interrelationships among the community constructs that they study, but quantitative analyses are frequently hindered by limitations of the data. Thankfully, the rich and...
